How can I replace division sign with slash in ticks of BarLegend












4












$begingroup$


I am plotting a Bar legend for the density plot using BarLegend. I got the desired bar legend but it has ticks in the form $frac{pi}{6},~frac{pi}{3},..$, I want them to be like $pi/6,~pi/3,...$ I want to write the division using slash. How can I do this in mathematica.



The code I am using is:



BarLegend[{Hue[Rescale[#, {0, Pi}, {0, 1}]] &, {π/6 - .1, 2 π/3 + .1}}, 
LabelStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, Medium, FontFamily -> "Courier"],
ColorFunctionScaling -> False,
Ticks -> {π/6, π/3, π/2, 2 π/3}]

    Hi Parveen, welcome to MMA.SE! Please consider adding some code to your question - it really helps us help you if we can quickly reproduce your results. I'm pretty sure you want something like FormatType->StandardForm!

    Thanks for the answer. Something strange happened. I did copy and paste your code into my mathematica 11 and the ticks got interchanged. However I got the plot as you got but in my case $pi/6$ appears instead of $pi/2$. I don't know why!

Something like this will work:



BarLegend[{
Hue[Rescale[#, {0, Pi}, {0, 1}]] &, {[Pi]/6 - .1, 2 [Pi]/3 + .1}
},
LabelStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, Medium, FontFamily -> "Courier"],
ColorFunctionScaling -> False,
Ticks -> ({#, InputForm@#} & /@ {[Pi]/6, [Pi]/3, [Pi]/2,
2 [Pi]/3})]


The idea is to pass a list like {{x1,label1},{x2,label2}...} to Ticks.

Since it seems like you know exactly what you want to put into your ticks, you could just put strings:



BarLegend[{Hue[Rescale[#, {0, Pi}, {0, 1}]] &, {[Pi]/6 - .1,

Since it seems like you know exactly what you want to put into your ticks, you could just put strings:



BarLegend[{Hue[Rescale[#, {0, Pi}, {0, 1}]] &, {[Pi]/6 - .1, 
2 [Pi]/3 + .1}},
LabelStyle ->
Directive[Black, Bold, Medium, FontFamily -> "Courier"],
ColorFunctionScaling -> False,
Ticks ->
Transpose[{{[Pi]/6, [Pi]/3, [Pi]/2, 2 [Pi]/3}, {"[Pi]/6",
"[Pi]/3", "[Pi]/2", "2[Pi]/3"}}]]

Something like this will work:



BarLegend[{
Hue[Rescale[#, {0, Pi}, {0, 1}]] &, {[Pi]/6 - .1, 2 [Pi]/3 + .1}
},
LabelStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, Medium, FontFamily -> "Courier"],
ColorFunctionScaling -> False,
Ticks -> ({#, InputForm@#} & /@ {[Pi]/6, [Pi]/3, [Pi]/2,
2 [Pi]/3})]


The idea is to pass a list like {{x1,label1},{x2,label2}...} to Ticks.

    Seems correct but I want $pi$ instead of $Pi$ and the upper most tick should be $2pi/3$ instead of $2*Pi/3$. If you can modify it, then it would be a great help
